DROPER is off the scale

K&N doesn't, Albie is right. I called them about a week ago. They're "working on it". No ETA.

All I can say to all the open box filter guys here is: if you plan to really use your H2 as designed (i.e., off-roading) and you encounter water crossings or such, it is nearly guaranteed you are going to suck water with these open air box filter systems.

I have had my H2 in almost mirror depth mud and frame depth in water and both times my engine compartment was completely full of both as I drove through it. In fact, my mud trip literally encased my engine compartment with mud, clogged every one of my radiators and packed the underside of the "Vortec" electronic cover. The H2 has very little protection from direct water flow inside the engine compartment. All the factory pieces are designed to prevent water intakes.

GM has made it painfully clear, no coverage. If yours is just a street rig (or beauty queen as my buddy calls them), go for it.
